This was one of the most well researched and balances pieces on keto I’ve read. Nice work! However, your statement of “Carbohydrates make up the life blood of our body’s ability to function” is just not true. Carbs are not an essential nutrient. Since human bodies can convert fat to use as fuel, no amount of carbs are necessary. Also, the diet isn’t as restrictive as you make it out to be. I think that perception stems from the idea that everything we eat has to be amazing, delicious etc. Food is fuel, its health benefits should outweigh the temper tantrums of our tastebuds.
There is exciting research on the role of a keto diet as a form of treatment for cancer. In one study, the use of a keto diet on patients with advanced cancer was deemed safe, and some evidence suggested it played a role in stabilizing the disease or resulting partial remission. In another study, the keto diet was used as a form of therapy for patients with malignant brain cancer. The study found that the keto diet may carry anti-tumor effects when administered in experimental animal and human brain tumors. The researchers believe this may be due to the reduction in calories, which reduces the circulating glucose needed for tumor growth. It is still unsure whether a keto diet per se plays a role in this or simply calorie restriction. All of this is to say that the research is preliminary, however still promising.
Here’s why. All of these effects take time, but a reasonable explanation as to why the keto diet leads to rapid weight loss is due to the loss of water weight. One of the concerns with the keto diet is the loss of muscle mass and the depletion of glycogen stores. Glycogen, which stores our glucose, also stores water, so when stores are depleted, we flush out excess water. In other words, that rapid weight loss isn’t fat, it’s just water.

What fruit can you eat on keto diet


Does Sweet N Low have carbs

I’ve lost lots of weight on the keto diet (over 100lbs) so the comment about the weight losses being water is just absurd. And I can sustain it quite easily as long as I have the right foods in the house – just like any dietary ha it you want to maintain. The Mediterranean diet was just ranked as the #1 diet, but I bet if there were Oreos in the house, I couldn’t maintain that diet either. The “low fat” diet that we’ve all been told is so good for us is not based on sound science. It’s based on the lipids theory from the 1930s and has since been denounced due to the researcher’s omittence of any data that didn’t fit his desired model. Also, the idea that somehow because you’re eliminating a macronutrient (carbs are not a food group), you’re also reducing food intake overall, and THAT’S the reason for weight loss, is utterly false. I eat WAY more on the keto diet than I ever did when I wasn’t paying attention. My brain, body, emotions, and weight all run better on ketones than they ever did on glycogen. I actually believe that ketosis is probably the way we were designed (or evolved) to operate. Think about it… agriculture (growing carbs for eating) is only something we’ve done in the last 10,000 years. Before that, we’d eat meat all fall, winter, spring, and early summer, then gorge ourselves on carbs in the late summer to store up fat, and then do it all over again in the fall. Just because we have access to an abundance of carbs doesn’t mean that’s how we are meant to live. And for hose who think that only eating meat is horribly bad for you, look at the Inuits, the aborigines, and other people groups around the world, who until the west interrupted with colonization and exploration, loved solely on high fat animal products. And guess what, they were healthier before we showed them how easy and tasty bread was.
